Fedora Silverblue on the Marketing Infographics campaign

Hi @team,

I’m writing you in representation of the Marketing team. We have a campaign, hopefully to be launched next month. The idea is to promote several parts of the Fedora Project, and we are thinking about Silverblue. I’ve taken several parts of the docs: Description, FAQ and Getting Started, to put in an Inforgraphic, maybe you can check it and tell us if the info is right or if you want to put something more or to remove something.

The link to the pagure ticket is: Issue #646: Infographics for marketing: Fedora Silverblue - design - Pagure.io

Please let me know what you think.

Under the title “How can I install Eclipse on Silverblue” you could note that Eclipse Platform IDE and Eclipse SDK IDE are both available as a flatpak through Gnome Software, but I’m not certain if it is through Flathub or Fedora’s flatpak repo. Good general overview of Silverblue.

Actually I took that info from the documentation under: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) :: Fedora Docs

But if you think we it’s not ok, I can remove it.

I had noticed that Eclipse was available as a Flatpak through Gnome SW. Like I said I am not sure if it is from Flathub or the Fedora flatpak repo. When I click on the link for the download of Eclipse on the FAQ page it goes to the default Apache Server page that is titled Fedora Test Page, no download. So I am thinking the FAQ is a bit stale and needs an update, at least that link does.

I have done a little research. The correct link which should be in the FAQ is: Eclipse Flatpaks

The link has the instructions to install the “Eclipse Nightly Flatpaks”.

I have update the FAQ doc on github.

Can you take a new look at this an update the ticket?

Sure can do that, what would you like done? BTW I notice Eclipse is now different in Flatpak, Eclipse for contributors and Eclipse for Java.

I would like to have a brief of What silverblue is? The idea, as you can see in the design’s ticket, is to present an infographic about this flavor. You can check a finished one (Issue #647: Infographics for marketing: Fedora Server - design - Pagure.io) to see what we are looking for.

Thanks a lot for taking time to do this.

Do you had the time to check the design’s ticket (Issue #646: Infographics for marketing: Fedora Silverblue - design - Pagure.io)?

Hello, and Happy New Year!

I haven’t had the time over the past couple of weeks for more than a mere review of the tag and the comments around it. I am going to post a comment on Pagure but wanted to respond directly to you first since you seem to be the champion of the idea. The infographic is a good media tool to quickly explain something, such as Silverblue. If you like I will add content ideas for Eclipse, why use flatpaks or containers or the toolbox. Perhaps flesh it out a bit for a first timer pondering Silverblue as an OS choice. Also would suggest looking at ostree and rpm-ostree sites for some good diagrams that show very well the concepts of layering, immutability, etc… I’ll try to put some links down in my comment at the Pagure ticket.

Thanks for taking that. I’m looking at the ticket, if I have something else to comment about, I will reach you here at first.
